Reaction Steps

2.990 g (21.60 mmol) of potassium carbonate and 3.050 g (9.40 mmol) of ethyl 2,4-dibromo-3-hydroxybenzoate were introduced into 50 ml of N,N-dimethylformamide. 1.401 g (9.40 mmol) of bromomethylcyclobutane were added at room temperature and the mixture was heated for 6 hours at 120-130° C. The mixture was subsequently poured into water and extracted with diethyl ether. The combined organic phases were washed with water, dried over Na2SO4 and evaporated completely on a rotary evaporator. Drying in an oil-pump vacuum gave ethyl 2,4-dibromo-3-cyclobutylmethoxybenzoate as brown oil.
